Book SynopsisThe cracks in Clementine and Edouard's marriage are becoming impossible to ignore. Her work as a perfumer is no longer providing solace and her sense of self is withering. Then, decades after the disturbing end of a bisexual love triangle, Clementine's former lover Racha resurfaces and her world tilts. What does she want, if not revenge? Set in Paris and Provence, this is a beautifully written, intimate portrait of a woman navigating conflicting desires whilst dreaming of a fulfilling future.
